  • From Satellite to Community: The Journey of Earth Observation Data

    From Satellite to Community: The Journey of Earth Observation Data

    Every day, dozens of Earth observation satellites orbit our planet, collecting terabytes of data about environmental conditions from space. These sensors capture everything from water surface extent and soil moisture to vegetation health and precipitation patterns. Yet for all its precision and comprehensiveness, this valuable information often remains inaccessible to the communities that could benefit…

  • How Tethys Platform Transforms Water Resource Management

    How Tethys Platform Transforms Water Resource Management

    n the world of water resource management, the gap between data collection and effective decision-making remains a persistent challenge. Satellites monitor from above, river sensors collect data around the clock, and models predict everything from tomorrow’s streamflow to next year’s drought conditions. Despite this wealth of information, communities often struggle to translate these insights into…

  • Knowledge Sharing in Action: Best Practices from the Tethys Community

    Knowledge Sharing in Action: Best Practices from the Tethys Community

    Behind every successful environmental application lies something less visible but equally important: knowledge sharing. When developers document their work thoroughly, explain their design choices, and communicate openly about challenges, they multiply the impact of their innovations. In the Tethys community, this culture of shared learning has enabled applications to evolve from local solutions to global…
